This time it was Draymond Green who was escorted out of the arena.
A night after getting a fan ejected for saying “some threatening stuff to my life,” it was the Warriors star’s night that ended early.
Green, with Golden State about to take free throws while trailing the Pacers 106-94 with 8:10 left on Wednesday night at Indiana’s Gainbridge Fieldhouse, received his second technical foul.
The Warriors ended up losing 125-119 to falls to 14-15. Green had one point, three assists and two rebounds in 27 minutes.
It is unclear what prompted Green’s ejection, but it came after Stephen Curry exited the game with a shoulder injury.
The former Defensive Player of the Year had a few added words for the referees before briskly walking off while being escorted by security. Green led the league in technical fouls last season with 14 and has seven already this year.
All of this comes following a night where Green asked a referee to have a fan removed from Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum.
“[He said] some threatening stuff to my life,” Green told reporters of the fan after the game. “I was this close to really going back, diving all the way in, but I kinda just went back, told the official. When I told the official what he said, he’s like ‘He gotta get outta here.’ “
